Vaccination is encouraged by governments and institutions as it enhances immunity against diseases, yet, there is insufficient vaccination coverage in Middle East & Africa market. The persisting vastness of this gap between demand and supply will drive the market growth for the next few years.

Middle East & Africa region is prone to diseases and deaths caused by them which can generally be avoided through vaccination. For instance, World Health Organization (WHO) have confirmed that there has been a global decrease of 79% in death by measles between 2000 to 2015, but, the rates of infection from measles in African countries have remained to be high. To catch up with the unmet demand for vaccination in this region, governments and international organizations are striving towards the achievement of the common goal of large-scale vaccination coverage, thereby, spiraling the expansion of the market. The investments made by NGOs, philanthropists, etc. are also poised to catapult the market growth.

Regional Analysis:
The most significant share of revenue in Middle East & Africa region will be generated from U.A.E. due to its speeding pace of development in the healthcare sector, rapid urbanization, rise in healthcare expenditure, etc. The growing awareness about the diseases and the possibility of prevention has catapulted the demand in the region. Egypt trails U.A.Es share of revenue contribution and is expected to retain its position for the next six years.
The market in Africa holds tremendous potential for growth as there is a massive gap between the need and access which will catalyze the demand in the market for the next few years. Furthermore, the frequent outbreak of diseases and significant death rate due to lack of proper vaccination has motivated the organizations such as World Health Organization (WHO) to undertake initiatives and spiral market expansion. According to WHO, in Africa, 30 million children under-five age group fall sick due to diseases that can be prevented through proper vaccination, and of these, over half a million die. Owing to the poor vaccination coverage, the market in Africa is expected to grow at the fastest pace, especially in Sub Saharan regions.

President of Kenya, Uhuru Kenyatta, launched a vaccination campaign to uplift the immunization coverage. The campaign has been launched with a target of immunizing 400,000 children by the end of the next 100 days of the announcement which will raise the immunization coverage above 90%, i.e., more than the national target.
